The Richly Blended Peoples of Koffee is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Generalissimo Barista Espresso with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, smutty television, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 26.68 billion Richly Blended Peopleses are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Education also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Full City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Koffeean economy, worth an astonishing 21,936 trillion Cuppas a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is a breathtaking 822,223 Cuppas, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 5,729,868 per year while the poor average 40,906, a ratio of 140 to 1.

Cities are engulfed by smog, the government is cracking down on subversive groups, the people are famous throughout the region for their bleached-white teeth, and murder victims' families receive windfall payouts when the murderers are executed. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Koffee's national animal is the Schrodingers Cat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
